I've got a script that moves text files to a share on a Windoze machine. When it does it creates a "._" (dot underscore) file for each of them. Obviously this is an OS X thing but it's messing up the process on the Windoze side. Is there anyway I can write them without the accompanying "invisible" file. I tried using do shell script with mv but got the same thing.

The dot underscore files are how zip stores the files' resource forks. I don't know how to get rid of them easily. I would check man ditto, I think.
